I'm so bored. This is like a watered-down version of a Marcia Clark novel, without the edge or action. Things need to pick up pronto, or this will certainly be a DNF for me.

*sigh* I need to stop comparing this to Marcia Clark's Samantha Brinkman series. The main character in those novels is similar to Lila here, but not so self-doubting and spiritless.
I hear Lila obsessing over her affair, doubting her life choices, but there's just not enough going on overall for this neurosis to hold my interest. In the Marcia Clark novels, Sam is INVESTED and DRIVEN. Here Lila is just so blah.
